Sharepoint choice updates with an empty value (custom power apps form)

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 10

I used customize with power apps option to build a custom form. I have an issue with one dropdown/combobox value not updating sharepoint choice with the value selected. It updates it with empty value.

 

Sharepoint column "Position" is a choice type with an option to add values manually.

 

DataCardValue3 that suppose to update this SharePoint choice takes values from another Sharepoint list based on value of another dropdown/combobox.

 

Items of this DataCardValue3 is:

 

Filter('Positions', Unit.Value = DataCardValue6.Selected.Value)

 

The values visually are displayed correctly, so are when I display them in HtmlText item as DataCardValue3.Selected.Position

 

However, when I save the form with selected position, say "Manager of Reservations", the choice value is empty.

If I don't add filter and get all positions, then the value is saved. Seems like the filter breaks something.

 

Update item of this DataCard is

 

DataCardValue3.Selected

 

 

If I add .Position, which is available after I type ., at the end, it starts complaining that "expected record value".

 

I am a newbie here, trying my first small apps, so I apologize if I ask something obvious.
